Thanks for all the feedback. The blade, when measured along the spine, is a tad over 14" long. The longer handle helps give the blade a nice feel and while not a big, heavy blade, the blade does have some heft to it. I am afraid I do not have a proper scale to weight it. The POB is 2 centimeters past the cho. The blade shape reminds me a bit of a Sossun Pata and perhaps the maker of this blade was familiar with those swords and incorporated some of those features, ie, T-back spine with hollow grind and beveled edge.
I'll try and post some close up pictures of the koftgari later this evening.
